Stroke Rehabilitation Ward is a 17 bedded ward focusing on rehabilitation and discharge planning for both male and female patients post Stroke.

Intermediate Care is a vital part of health and social care, where you will be supporting patients who have experienced a period of ill health or injury to regain their independence and help support to rehabilitate them back to doing the things that are important to them, this may include supporting a patients mobility and transfers, encouraging someone to learn how to use a new piece of equipment, increasing a person’s independence getting washed and dressed or providing emotional support and encouragement when they need it most.

Whether you are new to health care, thinking of returning to work or want a career change then this is the opportunity for you. If you want to improve the quality of life for the patients you support, work within a fast-paced friendly team and be empowered to make change, a career in our Intermediate Care Service will be for you.
